Definitions

  • the invention relates to a camera system for the identification of people on the basis of portraits, the camera system having a housing, a camera module and a positioning device for setting a height position of the camera module, the camera module comprising at least one portrait camera, with a height position of the camera module using the positioning device in Depending on the body size of a person to be identified is automatically adjustable.
  • a pass-through control in the form of a sluice which is intended in particular for crossing borders at airports, comprises a plurality of lanes, each lane having an entrance and an exit door.
  • a person To pass through a lane, a person first presents their identification document, e.g. B. a passport or an identity card, on a reader, whereby an ID photo and other passport data can be read. After reading out the identification document, the entrance door opens. The person to be identified now enters an inner area of the lock or the lock lane, which is delimited by the two doors. Then the person to be identified approaches a camera system, which takes a portrait of the person in situ .
  • identification document e.g. B. a passport or an identity card
  • a camera system is significantly less space-intensive WO 2007 028 374 A1 because this camera system is door-free.
  • This camera system is mounted on a wall and comprises a positioning device in the form of a rail that is screwed directly to the wall, as well as a housing carried by the rail and movable in the vertical direction, so that the positioning device carries the housing.
  • the housing contains, among other things, a reader for identification documents and a camera module for in-situ portrait photography of a person to be identified.
  • the reading device clamps the identification document so that the person to be identified cannot remove the document intact from the reading device even by pulling hard. Then, however, this person is warned, which is why there is an increased risk of escape.
  • This problem could be solved by stationing security personnel or border guards at the camera system, which, however, runs counter to the basic idea of a lean yet efficient security apparatus.
  • a camera system for the identification of people on the basis of portrait shots in particular in front of identification switches
  • the camera system having a housing, a camera module and a positioning device for setting a height position of the camera module, the camera module comprising at least one portrait camera, with a height position of the camera module is automatically adjustable with the aid of the positioning device as a function of the body size of a person to be identified, the housing carrying the positioning device.
  • identification switch preferably means a person's workstation for comparing a photo of an identification document, for example a passport or an identity card, with the in-situ portrait.
  • identification switch preferably means border control switches, for example at airports, but also switches in embassies or consulates, at which people are identified on the basis of identification documents.
  • adjustable height position or “positioning device” preferably mean physical or digital positioning.
  • an electric motor can move the camera module, for example.
  • digital positioning provision can be made for a plurality of cameras to be arranged in the height direction, which capture an upright panoramic image, while an elongated and upright monitor only activates the image area that is at the level of the face of the person to be identified .
  • the expression "with the housing carrying the positioning device” preferably means that the positioning device extending in the height direction resists gravity due to the housing.
  • the positioning device would be off WO 2007 028 374 A1 thought away, the housing disclosed there would fall to the ground. Consequently, it is not disclosed there that the housing carries the positioning device, but the reverse case, according to which the positioning device carries the housing.
  • the invention is based on the knowledge that in the case of a drive system carried by the housing itself, the camera system can be arranged as a stand-alone device and thus very flexibly. This eliminates the need to attach the camera system to the wall or to another structurally fixed element. This initially has the disadvantage that the camera system would have to be designed to be quite massive in order to avoid falls and would have to be provided with a roller system for the purpose of transport. Because with training as a lean column, the camera system would be on within an airport Permanently exposed to a not inconsiderable risk of falling - examples are displeased, careless or drunk passengers. It would therefore be necessary to fix the column on the floor by means of screws.
  • the camera system according to the invention can directly in front of an identification switch (border control switch or control switch in embassies / consulates) z. B. be arranged by screwing on the floor. Since identification switches are often also designed to be mobile, the flexibility of the camera system is of decisive importance.
  • the disciplining effect of security personnel (border guards or security service) who are to be deployed anyway reduces the risk of vandalism.
  • the presence of the control officer also reduces the risk of escape. So he can at any time Press the silent alarm button without the person to be identified or already identified noticing anything.
  • the identification switches are usually located in a more secure area of the building, making it more difficult to escape.
  • the advantageous possibility of attaching the camera system to the identification switch for example via a clamp or screw connection, in order to further reduce the risk of falling.
  • the control officer first receives the identification document from the person to be identified and places it in a reader at the control desk, so that a reader in the camera system and a mechanism for clamping the identification document are no longer required.
  • the camera system no longer has to be designed to withstand a person pulling on a clamped identification document. This further simplifies the camera system and consequently makes it lighter, more flexible and more elegant.
  • the slim design also means that the inspector (the border official or the employee of a security service or an embassy / consulate) has a good view of the person to be identified from his identification switch, which is particularly beneficial for security, but also for efficiency .
  • the controller can give the person to be identified additional instructions for taking the in-situ portrait.
  • the design of the camera system according to the invention achieves a space-saving effect in the in-situ identification because no additional space needs to be provided for fixed structural elements, which are rare in any case.
  • the additional stationing of security personnel can also be dispensed with, so that the personnel expenditure is reduced to the minimum required anyway can be restricted.
  • the invention solves the problem outlined above.
  • the housing can be fixed in a stationary manner relative to the floor.
  • the expression “fixedly fixable” preferably means that the housing as a whole is immovable relative to a floor with the aid of a fixation, with the exception of the release of the fixation.

  • Fig. 4 a front view of the camera system 1 can be seen, the front part 16 of the housing 3 having been removed so that the interior of the camera system 1 can be seen.
  • the camera module 4 is preferably fastened to a guide carriage which is covered by elements 27 and 28 and which is mounted so as to slide or move on a guide rail 10.
  • an electric motor 11 drives a toothed belt 22 which extends along the guide rail 10 and to which the guide carriage 18 is connected.
  • the electric motor 11 is preferably designed as a stepper motor and may have a step angle of 1.8 ° with a holding torque of at least 1.1 Nm and draw at least 2.5 A of current at full capacity.
  • the electric motor 11 is expediently controlled by a motor control 23 which - like the electric motor 11 also advantageously - is arranged below the transparent opening 12.
  • a lighting control 24 is used to control the lighting unit 13 in order to always be able to create optimally illuminated portraits.
  • the electrical components 25 include, for example, line circuit breakers, terminals and / or FI circuit breakers.
  • FIG. 4 A rear panel 20 is also to be emphasized, which is dark or black and is arranged between the image display field 9 and the rear part 17 of the housing 3.
  • the rear panel 20 essentially has the dimensions of the transparent opening 12 and is used to even out the inner workings of the camera system 1 for a viewer standing in front of the camera system 1. Choosing the color black creates a special effect because the viewer has the feeling of looking into nothing. This creates a not inconsiderable aesthetic effect.
  • a drag chain 19 is according to Fig. 4 attached with its first end 18 to the inside of the housing 3 opposite the guide rail 10.
  • the drag chain 19 leads various cables (grounding, power supply, Ethernet cable, a CAN bus and / or an RS485 bus) to the camera module 4.
  • the drag chain 19 has the task of strengthening the cables due to the frequent movement of the camera module 4 To protect bends, so that the drag chain 19 increases the service life of the cables or reduces the number of unscheduled maintenance.
  • a part or a second end of the drag chain 19 between the rear panel 20 and the rear part 17 of the Housing is arranged and thus covered.
  • the image display field 9 and the cameras 6, 8 in particular are arranged between the rear panel 20 and the front part 16 of the housing 3.
  • the camera module 4 includes FIG Fig. 5 from top to bottom a front panel 26, a mounting element 27, a carrier element 28, a computing unit 29 and electronic components 30.

  • the computing unit 30 of this exemplary embodiment may be designed as a single-board computer (SBC).
  • the carrier element 28 is connected to the guide carriage 18 of the positioning device 5.
  • a view to the depth conditions in Fig. 5 (the direction from top to bottom) it can be determined that the extent of the mounting element 27 in the depth direction is greater than that of the image display field 9, the live image camera 8 and the portrait camera 6.
  • a view of a holder 31 of the mounting element 27 for the live image -Camera 8 it can be determined that the holder 31 extends less deeply than a side wall 32 of the mounting element 27.
  • the components 6, 8, 9 mounted on the back of the mounting element 27 are spaced approximately 1 cm to the carrier element 28.
  • This distance between the components 6, 8, 9 and the carrier element 28 is used to support the already mentioned rear panel 20 to be introduced so that part of the carrier element 28 is covered by the rear panel 20 from an outside observer.
  • the rear panel 20 is pushed into the space between the components 6, 8, 9 on the one hand and the carrier element 28 on the other, so part of the carrier element 28 and in particular the connection 21 for the drag chain 19 is covered, as highlighted with dashed lines.
  • a front part of the camera module 4 with the components 6, 8, 9 and the front panel 26 is arranged between the rear panel 20 and the front part 16 of the housing 3, while a rear part of the camera module 4 with the components 21, 28, 29, 30 is located between the rear panel 20 and the rear part 17 of the housing 3.
